essential? Why?​

Answer 1

Answer:

hy dear here is ur ans.....

• Recommendations for awards are usually made by a commanding officer. For the highest awards, the Victoria Cross and the George Cross, recommendations are further endorsed by the VC Committee. 
• In 2009 The Queen set up a new award, The Elizabeth Cross, for the families of those who have died on operations or as a result of terrorism. 
• The Victoria Cross

This is awarded in exceptional circumstances in recognition of extreme bravery and devotion to duty in the presence of the enemy. It was the first British medal to be created for bravery.

• The George Cross

Ranking alongside the Victoria Cross as the nation's highest award for gallantry, this recognises acts of gallantry not in the presence of the enemy, for example the disposal of explosives. It may be awarded to civilians in addition to military personnel.

• The Distinguished Service Order

This recognises outstanding leadership during active operations.

• The Conspicuous Gallantry Cross

Instituted in 1993, this awards conspicuous gallantry during active operations against the enemy.

• The George Medal

Also able to be awarded to civilians, this rewards acts of bravery, one step beneath The George Cross.

• The Distinguished Service Cross, Military Cross and Distinguished Flying Cross

These medals recognise acts of bravery during combat operations at sea, on land and in the air respectively.

There are special medals reserved exclusively for members of the British and Commonwealth Armed Forces. Military personnel can also receive honours from the military divisions of civilianhonours.
